But it is done, ready for release in 1.4
Should this status thus not say something else than started? Started means “work begun”. But work is done there. Basically the status probably should be “Slated for XY” or similar.
There are a couple of layers of caching involved in this process. The API server pulls petitions data from the forums every hour, and ClassicPress dashboards cache that data for 12 hours. So it may take up to a maximum of 13 hours (or 6-7 hours on average) for a change on the forums to be reflected in the ClassicPress dashboard.
Let me know if you have any other questions (here or on DM).
